There is more than one artist with this name:

1) Anouk Teeuwe (born April 8th, 1975) known as Anouk (www.anouk.nl), is a multi platinum selling and multi award winning .

She initially sang at weddings and parties with the band Shotgun Wedding, prior to meeting Barry Hay of Golden Earring, a friend of her ex-husband Edwin Jansen. Hay believed Anouk to have talent, and offered to write her some songs, one of which was her 1996 debut single Mood Indigo; written in collaboration with George Kooymans (also from the Golden Earring).



After she met Bart van Veen, her co-writer, the pair wrote a few songs. On September 5, 1997, she released her second single, Nobody’s Wife, which remained at the top of the Dutch music charts for a number of weeks. Her debut album, Together Alone also turned out to be a huge success.

In 1998, Anouk won two awards from Dutch music station TMF (The Music Factory) in addition to an Edison award. During the summer, she played at various festivals, including two ‘big ones’, Pinkpop and Parkpop.

Her second album, Urban Solitude, was released in November 1999, and included the singles R U Kiddin’ Me, The Dark, Michel and Don’t. All song reached the Dutch Top 40.

Shortly afterwards, Anouk went to the United States in order to get a record deal. Negotiations with her American label (Sony) ended badly, causing her to return to the Netherlands without a deal. She began touring the Netherlands in February 2001 (The Anouk Acoustic “AA” Tour).
